We are a Christian Parish Church in Essex in the Diocese of Chelmsford, and part of the Church of England. We are here to spread the ‘Good News’ about God and his Son Jesus Christ.
The Bible says “For God loved the world so much that he gave his only son, so that everyone who believes in him may not die but may have eternal life” (John 3:16). That means those who ‘follow’ Jesus Christ, who love his company, respect his teaching, trust his promises and are prepared to let this affect their lives.
To arrange a baptism or wedding, please ask at our weekly 10am Sunday Service.
For pastoral visits, funerals and other enquiries, please contact the Vicar or the Revd Ian Monks.
We are a friendly church and you will find a warm welcome at our services and church groups.
For children, we have a Children’s Sunday Club every Sunday at 10:00 in the hall. We also run Children’s Holiday Clubs.
We run a Coffee morning every Thursday from 10 to 12 noon. All are welcome.
We have an active Mothers’ Union meeting on the first Tuesday of each month and our Textile Group has created inspiring and colourful banners for the church and meets fortnightly.
“Just for Girls” meet fortnightly on a Tuesday morning from 10—12 noon for Worship, Meditation, Prayer and Fellowship. The group is open to women who are members of St Paul’s church. Please contact Pauline Bolding for further details.
Light up St Paul’s Spire!
Everyone is invited to participate in our Spirelight Dedication, to commemorate an Anniversary, Birthday or any other memorable date.
